Good days nairalanders,this is a new account to hide my identity here,I'm an old popular member.

My elder brother already have 50/100 plot available in Benin city .In the community where he have the land they are several borrow pits to easily buy sand through tipper drivers.
The plan is to build 4 room bedsitter, because here many people are building room and parlour self contained and many single tenants are looking for bedsitter to rent.Bedsitters even produces more rent than room and parlour self contained .

Once we get roughly estimation,we will start work because we want to finish before Christmas.

That four room each will have their own toilet combine with Bathroom and sink,we plan to use pvc ceiling and the basic aluminium not that expensive stone coated one oh.

Since my brother is not in Nigeria,he ask me to find out like how much it will cost us to build such.

Has anybody installed Felicity Solar System in their project? I need to know the reliability of this system before I delved into it.
I was going for Victron but the price is high now, I am a kobo-kobo man with no deep pockets.
Advantage and Dis-advantage of this Felicity Solar System will be appreciated.
I am interested in the 10kva Hybrid with Lithium Battery setup.
Thank you.

Hajji M.

Felicity is good and also reliable. Just make sure your earthing is good and if possible to protect the inverter equipment with Automatic Voltage regulator(AVR) t. This AVR with protect the inverter from Surge.

OK I think you should sell the land and invest in high rent yielding areas cos if you want to invest in the Biz of renting you gotta aim high the reason I say this is simple, House cost same amount to build, its the Location that is different in price, meaning a 2 bed in Lekki is going to cost same to build as a 2 bed in Ondo village.

Well, thanks for this.

My question is how is the binding wire securely attached to the POP? I understand how the binding wire is securely attached to the wood framework.

Is it structurally sound?

Good to know they use screw nails to hold them.

POP is already dry before it is mounted, it is never mounted wet or is it?

Oops! Just seeing this! But here is my submission.

To your questions:. Binding wire is used most effectively on decking areas /how it is used:. Tornado nails are fastened to the decking with Binding wire securely attached to it, the mixed fillas which is the main holder is then attached to the nails & binding wire and while also connected to pop board Piece by piece (I've got an upcoming pop project soon! I'd post a picture for visual understanding! When we start).

Noggin areas don't actually need Binding wires, The mixed fillas is tied across the wooden beams and then connected with the pop board (it is structurally sound). Another purpose of binding wire for noggin areas is to hold firmly range iron for board setting, which would be eventually removed (range & binding wire)

Yes the pop board is dry after casting before it is mounted, like I have always reiterated on this platform, the Pop gets even dryer & stronger as days passes by.


Polystyrene is used here in Nigeria, usually fitted with these accessories: ceiling profile, angle iron, corner bead, joint tape, edge trim & screws etc (Without fillas or Binding wire).

The location is okay,but there's already flats and room and parlour self contained around here,we did our research and found out that people are searching for bedsitters to rent.
